In this video Dennis from Hawkbait Lofts shows us how he vaccinates his young birds with the PMV (Paramyxovirus) vaccine. He uses a standard syringe with a 22 gauge needle and injects the vaccine just under the skin between the leg and the body he calls it the “web”. He says you may notice the vaccine bubble under the skin but the body will slowly absorb the vaccine and start the immunity process against PMV. Dennis’ tip “don’t go to deep”.

I don’t pretend to know it all… as a matter of fact I am very new to raising birds,but why use such a heavy gauge on little birdie??? Why not use a 30 or 31 gauge needle to inject the vaccine?
